NHL hockey provides sports bettors with a wide variety of wagering opportunities. With each of the league’s teams playing an 82-game regular season that runs from October until April, followed by a two-month playoff tournament in which the top 16 teams battle until only one emerges as champion, sports bettors can cash in wagering on individual games as well as overall team performances.

After a multitude of free agent signings and some surprising trades the dust is starting to settle on the NHL offseason moves.
